Depends, in some technical fields it’s starting to flip because kids don’t need to learn computer skills as much when they just use iPhones and tablets where everything “just works”.
Yeah. My friend from high school works in high school. Among others he teaches IT. Compared to today’s kids we were hackers. We knew how to crack a game, install a driver, replace some hardware. Today’s kids don’t know how to download a file.
I went to school with someone who didnt like deadlines, so she would do the following:
fill a word document with nonsense
open word document in hex editor
corrupt file through some means she googled
submit the file to our submission system
wait for teacher to open the file, get ‘corrupted’ message
She’d do the work at her own pace in the mean time, and when she got asked for another copy because it was corrupted, shed hand it up. She graduated with me, and I dont know what she does now but I hope she’s in infosec.
Our IT teacher knew if we did something late because he would look at when the file was last edited. We had a great IT teacher that also wanted to teach us how to think instead of just teaching basic word and excell.

Couldn’t you then just change the system clock before editing the file? Or hell, is the metadata able to be altered by the user?
The server logs the submission time
Right, but in this case the teacher knows the submission time will be late because they asked for an additional submission after the due date.
I mean this is like 90% of college even when you’re not gaming the system
Well, not everyone knew how to crack a game, but many did know how to use an existing crack for a game
